ADDITIONAL TIPS

FOR PROPER USAGE

• In the event of a power

failure, call the local ofﬁce of

your electric company and

ask how long it is going to

last.

- Most power failures that are

corrected within an hour

or two will not affect your

refrigerator temperatures.

However, you should

minimize the number of door

openings while the power is

off.

- Should the power failure last

more than 24 hours, remove

all frozen food.

• The appliance might not

operate consistently (frozen

contents can thaw or

temperatures can become

too warm in the frozen food

compartment) when sited for

an extended period of time in

a location where ambient air

temperatures are constantly

below the temperatures

for which the appliance is

designed.

• In case of particular foods,

keeping it under refrigeration

can have a bad effect on

preservation due to its

properties.

• Your appliance is frost free,

which means there is no

need to manually defrost

your appliance. This will be

carried out automatically.

• Temperature rise during

defrosting complies with ISO

requirements.

However, if you want to

prevent an undue rise in the

temperature of the frozen

food while the appliance

defrosts, wrap the frozen

DA68-02935A-10.indb 14 2018. 7. 9. �� 4:53

safety information _15

food in several layers of

newspaper.

• Do not re-freeze frozen foods

that have thawed completely.

Saving Energy Tips

- Install the appliance in a

cool, dry room with adequate

ventilation.

Ensure that it is not exposed

to direct sunlight and never

put it near a direct source of

heat (a radiator, for example).

- Not to block any vents and

grilles is recommended for

energy efﬁciency.

- Allow warm food to cool

down before placing it in the

appliance.

- Put frozen food in the

refrigerator to thaw.

You can then use the low

temperatures of the frozen

products to cool food in the

refrigerator.

- Do not keep the door of

the appliance open for too

long when putting food in or

taking food out.

The shorter the time the door

is open, the less frost build-

up you’ll have in the freezer.

- It is recommended to

install the refrigerator with

clearance to the back and

sides. This will help reduce

power consumption and

keep your energy bills lower.

• Avoid a location that is very

hot or extremely cold.

- Conﬁrm that the location

has ambient temperatures

between 41ºF and 110ºF.

(5ºC and 43ºC)

- If you install the refrigerator in a location with

extremely cold or hot ambient temperatures, it

could malfunction, causing its cooling capacity

to decrease and its power consumption to

increase.

Ground the product

The refrigerator must be properly grounded to

prevent any power leakages or electric shocks.

To ground the refrigerator, plug it in to a grounded,

three blade wall outlet.

If the outlet in the installation location cannot

accept a three blade, grounded plug, have a

qualiﬁed electrician replace the current outlet with a

three blade grounded outlet.

Improper use of the grounding plug can result in

a risk of electric shock. If it is necessary to use

an extension cord, use only a 3-wire extension

cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a

3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the

refrigerator.

The marked rating of the extension cord should be

AC115-120V, 10A, or more.

If a you use a grounding adapter, make sure the

receptacle box is fully grounded.

Caution: Never use gas pipes, telephone lines, or

other potential lightning attractors as an electrical

ground.

ALIGNING THE HEIGHTS OF THE

REFRIGERATOR DOORS

If the Fridge door is lower than the Freezer door,

adjust the door height by turning the door height

adjustment bolt at the bottom of the Fridge door.

Height difference

• Turning it counter clockwise increases the

height of the door and turning it clockwise

decreases the height of the door.

• Loosen the screw (1), turn the adjusting bolt

(2) with a spanner to align the door height to

the Freezer door and then ﬁx it by fastening the

screw (1).

(1) Screw

(2) Adjusting bolt

• After adjusting the height, be sure to install the

protective rubber inserts as shown in the ﬁgure

to protect your feet from injury.

If you increase the height of the Fridge

door by too much, the switch may be

damaged or the door may not close

properly.

CAUTION

INSTALLING THE WATER

DISPENSER LINE

A water dispenser with a ﬁlter is one of the helpful

features on your new refrigerator.

To help promote better health, the water ﬁlter

removes unwanted particles from your water.

However, it does not sterilize or destroy

microorganisms.

You may need to purchase a water purifying

system to do that.

The water line also connects to the ice maker.

For the ice maker to operate properly, water

pressure of 20-125psi (138 ~ 862kPa) is required.

If the refrigerator is installed in an area with low

water pressure (below 20 psi), you can install a

booster pump to compensate for the low pressure.

After you have connected the water line, make

sure the water storage tank inside the refrigerator

is properly ﬁlled.

To do this, press the water dispenser lever until the

water runs from the water outlet.

• Water line installation kits are available at

extra cost from your dealer.

We recommend using a water line

installation kit that contains copper

tubing and ¼” compression nut.

• Use the new hose-sets supplied with the

appliance only. Do not re-use an old hose set.

Connecting to the water supply line

1. First, shut off the main water

supply.

2. Locate the nearest cold water drinking line and

install the pipe clamp and shut off valve.

1. Connect the household water line to the

assembled compression ﬁtting.

- If you are using copper tubing, slip the

compression nut (B) (not supplied) and

ferrule (not supplied) on the copper tubing (not

supplied) as shown.

- If you are using plastic tubing (B) , insert the

molded end (Bulb) of the plastic tubing (B) into

the compression ﬁtting.

Do not use without the molded end (Bulb)

of the plastic tubing (B).

2. Tighten the compression nut (B) onto the

compression ﬁtting.

Do not over-tighten the compression nut (B) .

3. Turn the water on and check for any leakage.

If you ﬁnd water drops or leakage in the

connection areas, turn off the main water

supply. Check the connections and, if

necessary, tighten.

4. Flush 1 gallon of water through the ﬁlter before

drinking or using the water from the refrigerator.

(Flush approximately 6 minutes.) To ﬂush, press

a large glass or cup against the water dispenser

lever. Fill the glass, empty it into the kitchen sink

after it is ﬁlled, and then repeat.

5. After you turn on the refrigerator, let the ice

maker make ice for 1 to 2 days. Over that

period of time, throw out the ﬁrst 1 or 2 buckets

of ice the freezer makes to ensure all impurities

have been removed from the water line.

Only connect the water line to a drinkable

water source.

If you have to repair or disassemble the water line,

cut off 1/4“ of the plastic tubing to make sure you

get a snug, leak-free connection.

You can test the water line quickly using a

paper cup. Under normal conditions, the

water dispenser can ﬁll a 5.75 oz. (170cc)

cup in about 10 seconds.
